Psalm 119a-Aleph - Blessed Are They Whose Ways Are Blameless




Section 1 of 22 set to music. All eight verses of this section of Psalm 119 begin with Aleph, the 1st letter of the Hebrew alphabet. - Commentary to come. - (High Resolution version available at zcpress.org/psalm 119) -

Isaiah Chapter 53 says:

-- He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.

Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.--

These verses explain the origin of the company of the righteous in Psalm 119 verse 1: -- Blessed are THEY whose ways are BLAMELESS --

What an impossibility without the intervention of God. We must have His Spirit within us, and the only place to get it (more correctly, the only place to get HIM) is at Ground Zero, the Cross of God's Anointed Son Jesus, where He paid the just penalty of our sins and released His own Spirit without measure.

God is calling us to the perfection that is found in Christ alone, -- Christ in YOU, the hope of glory--
